Mzungu in Mukono

MY Adventure in Uganda

​

Hi, thank you for taking the time to visit this page! Before you get started, here's a few things you should know...

1. I am in no way, shape, or form a writer. I know that my writing may be choppy, grammatically incorrect (sorry mom), and potentially not well explained. I will do my best to make it exciting, but I am not a story-teller by nature. You have been warned.

2. I can not guarantee how often I will be able to post. My hope is that I can provide a small blog post every other week, but you can stay updated by subscribing! 

3. I am SO incredibly excited to immerse myself in a new culture and I can't wait to document several of the new experiences I have here. 

​

I would love to have your support through prayer as I am on this journey and will do my best to keep a list of current prayer requests listed below if you feel comfortable supporting me in this way. 

-Emma

PRAYER REQUESTS

Safety during my travels in Uganda: between campus and my host home and around the country

1.

A willingness to step outside of my comfort zone and lean into my frustration and anxieties, so that I may fully experience my time abroad.

2.

Patience for myself and my loved ones at home, especially due to limited communication.

3.

"Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek His will in all you do, and He will show you which path to take." 

-Proverbs 3: 5-6
